The Employment Division within the Department of Business and Employment (DBE) has developed an NT Occupation Shortage List in response to stakeholder requests for more information about occupations experiencing shortages, recruitment difficulties and skill gaps.
The NT Occupation Shortage List covers skilled, semi-skilled and unskilled occupations.
The Employment Division has reviewed the 2008 list to account for emerging shortages and new information from consultations and research. The 2009 list represents the latest available information.
The most current list is available from the following link:
